geriatricians and physiotherapists
use
several
tests
and scales based on indicators to provide
scores related to physical assessment. However, these
scores depend on the viewpoint of the geriatrician. So, the
assessment contains a level of subjectivity. Besides, frailty
detection includes the study of other indicators from
nutritional, cognitive, and social domains. In this paper, we
propose a system to support physicians determining an
accurate and centralized elderly frailty diagnosis, by using
an accelerometer-enabled mobile phone. The accelerometer
collects data movement from physical activity and
calculates a set of measures that are combined with clinical
indicators (from tests and medical instruments) providing a
frailty assessment to facilitate decision-making and the
subsequent treatment
